Man. Rough year for BYU. Injuries suck when you lack depth. Now you guys know how Utah fan felt the last two years.

That sucks. That being said, it was an exciting game. I wish Utah had receivers who could catch like yours. We'd be a top 10 team right now.like I said, injuries suck. This feels like after the 54-10 game. I don't even feel right mocking you guys.

At least you'll have Taysom another year.
 
Stewart has actually played fairly well in Taysom's place. Obviously, turnovers killed BYU tonight but that defense is still bad. Even if I'd known Taysom would be out for most of the year, if you would have told me that BYU was gonna lose 3 games this year, I woulda laughed in your face. If BYU loses 1 or 2 more games, is Bronco safe?
 
I heard the announcers last night say byu has had 23 ankle injuries. That is crazy.

They were down to thier 5th string running back last night and missing 3 starting defensive backs.

Might be the most injured team in the country

They should change the entrance to their practice facility.

That Carter guy is very quick. Averaged 12 yards/carry. I don't know how a guy like that doesn't figure in somewhere normally. Run him out of the slot occasionally or something. He hits the hole so fast.

I actually think the depth has looked really good overall. I think BYU is a little weaker when their depth plays, but not much. Those backup LBers are just as good as Fua or Bronson(who needs to go back to D-Line because he gets murdered in space most of the time). Jordan Johnson was the worst DB to me this year so his injury doesn't matter. Craig Bills is certainly better than his backup. Levitt, I don't know; dude's a human missile, but I think that's been both a good and bad thing. It still comes down to defensive playcalling to me.

Oh well, at least BYU finally used Mitch Matthews as he needs to be used. I loved watching that. Just throw the ball near the guy and he's going to catch it. Christian Stewart seems to understand that being "open" doesn't have to mean that there are no defenders around. If Mitch Matthews is single covered, you go there every time.
 
What were the odds of Utah having a better record than BYU to start the season? What are the odds now? Utah still has a brutal schedule that will be tough if not impossible to win out. BYU has a weak schedule but the way they are playing is unlikely to win out. After watching Cal and BYU I'm not sure BYU would have won that game even if they were completely healthy.

I'm going 8-4 for both of them. BYU loses to either Cal or Boise and wins the rest. Though Middle Tennesse actually scares me too. They have a top 30 offense. 6-6 at worst.

Utah loses to USC, Oregon, Arizona State, and then finishes out with 3 wins. I'll go 6-6 at worst also for them because I think if they do lose those 3 games in a row that I think they will.....it might just snowball. And Stanford is not a fun game to try to get back on track with.
